I am still struggling with the recovery of the cold Dave and I caught while on our trip. For this reason, I don't have the summary of the adventure. Sorry... Dave plummeted quickly Sunday night after getting home. He started to improve finally on Tuesday... just as my body was crashing.
Natural remedies have been slow in helping me, but F I N A L L Y! I am on the mend.
Since I have been stuck in a chair, sitting up so I coughed less, I did finish quilting the little table topper that helped to pull me out of my creative rut.
Despite being under the weather, I still managed to get Block 21 of the Pieces of My Life Sew Along published ~ The Maple Leaf Block... as well as the newsletter that accompanied the link for the pages of the Memory Book. This was made possible thanks for some forward thinking and preparation before our trip. :) I do love when technology complies with my wishes and works well. If you missed it, you can find the story that focuses on fall activities HERE.
Time to link up your personal Sew & Tell!
Keep Piecing,
Melva

I'm so sorry you both came home and got sick - that's not a fun way to end a vacation! The vintage tabletopper is a sweet finish, though. Perfect for working on from your comfy chair! I have my maple leaf block made and ready to share - just have to get the post together.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are starting to feel somewhat better now. So glad you are out of your creative rut tho'.
ReplyDeleteI love that table topper. What gorgeous fabrics you've used. I don't think I've seen the panel or the border fabric before. Very effective!
ReplyDeleteI’m so glad to hear you are on the mend. Coming home from a vacation with a bug of any kind for a souvenir is not my idea of fun. Thank you for hosting us and for your wonderful QALs and the stories that go with the blocks. 🤗
ReplyDeleteHope you continue to get better quickly!!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you are feeling better, Melva! Thanks for letting me link up!
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon! I got the same thing and it knocked me out for a week. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.
